Seattle trip:)

So, here are the pictures from our trip to Seattle. We were there so that Jeff could have his try out for college women's basketball referee-and guess what? HE GOT IT!!!
WOOO HOOO!!
Yep, he's now officially a college ref and he'll be making a LOT more money doing this. He's been working hard the last three years towards this goal and it's what our family needs. We're sooo happy!!
Ok, so this first picture is of the boys right before the game-they just had to bring little stuffed animals to keep themselves busy-which they did for almost 3 hours! Such great boys!

This second pic is after the good news and we decided to take our good boys to the Seattle Space Needle-goofy Dad and Quien!



Jeff and Quien loved watching the elevator go up and down on this screen. LOL


They thought it was cool how far up we were-Mama doesn't do heights usually, but for this special occasion I was brave.




The guys sure did enjoy looking out the window and through all the telescopes. They thought it was the coolest thing ever that we could see so far out!
Quien and Elliot playing their new favorite game-counting-after we warmed up with hot cocoa and banana bread.

Of course the guys had to make a memory coin-the boys loved spinning the wheel to heal squish the penny.
















Jeff and I had to lay on the ground to get these pictures of us with the boys and the Space Needle.
Ok, so the boys found these guys doing balloon figures and just had to get swords-two each. LOL The one guy kept telling awful kids' jokes-but Quien busted a gut at every one so the guy started laughing too-said Quien was his best customer yet!

They ran around play fighting for the next 1/2 hour while Jeff and I held hands and walked around the Space Needle area. They're so cute. By the time we got home, at 10pm, the balloons had of course shrunk to little swords and the boys woke up and asked for them. When they saw them they laughed and Elliot turned his into a turtle, Quien's into a duck. They were so cute.
We had such a good day there-it didn't matter to me that I was sick as a dog and had a faucet for a nose-I had a WONDERFUL day with my three guys and made a great memory for the four of us!
